It was so hard for us to go against the current as we chose to go up river. Hence, no pictures as we were struggling with our paddles and water splashed everywhere. We were soaked wet. Heheh!

Sarah only took the camera out from the bag when we managed to park our kayak by the river bank by holding to a tree branch.

On our way back, we detoured a bit to the lily pads area as the boys wanted to try their luck to catch big fish there.
